eac3to - audio conversion tool

[saint-francis]

This method given by madshi earlier is even easier to DO than he is able to DESCRIBE it here!

When you right click on my computer you get a drop down menu. There are no tabs let alone one called "extended". I don't understand these instructions. If you select any of the options you see on the drop down menu there is still no extended tab anywhere.

Right Click on My Computer -> Properties -> Environment Variables

See if that sequence works for you.

[laserfan]

Right Click on My Computer -> Properties -> Environment VariablesOn my XP PC, right-My Computer -> Properties -> get System Properties, click on Advanced tab, at bottom is Environment Variables. Once there find the Path entry and click Edit, then add

;C:\Program Files\eac3to

Don't forget the semicolon delimiter and make sure that you use YOUR path to eac3to.

Once this is done you go to a command prompt and the cd to the drive letter & directory you want your file to END UP in. For me, I always go to D: and process files from E: or vice-versa, to get a speed advantage from using different hard drives.

Yeah, mine was probably already on sitting on the advanced tab. :)

On my Vista Premium it's:

Hi madshi,

Do you mind to tell what source filter you are using for ac3 core files?

I've never found any source filter which fits to those files in my graph trials.

[Roscoe62]

Hey, has anyone successfully used eac3to with the region a BR of Mr & Mrs Smith?

The reason I ask is that when I use eac3to to look at the BR directory, and then choose option 1 (the only option) I get this message...

I did a search on this thread, but couldn't find any answers.

[piratburner]

Is is possible to make a "remux" from a BD ? I want take the mainmovie and sound, subs to output to a new m2ts file ??

If this works , then is the only tool I need :-) :-) :-)

[madshi]

In some of my TS files eac3to is showing discontinuity error. Then i just re-remux that TS file with tsMuxeR v1.8.4b and again check that file with eac3to it shown no error.

In both files it shown 27694 frames. Hope you're getting me, what i want to say.
Is there a question hidden in your post somewhere? Or a request?

Do you still need samples of dts-hd high resolution tracks? I could upload samples from Band of Brothers HDDVD and Reservoir dogs Blu-Ray, both dts-hd_hr 5.1. I didn't have any problems with those, but I remember you having asked for hr samples even if they work.
DTS-HR samples with some special properties (e.g. 96khz or 6.1 or 7.1) are still welcome, but I don't need more straight 5.1 48khz samples. Thanks!

Another thing: There is some information on cyberlink audio decoder 8 and graph edit at the end of the madflac thread. I am convinced that, based on this, you could add support for "proper" 5/6.1 --> 7.1 upmix aswell as dolby headphone.:)
Doesn't Cyberlink still downconvert everything to 16bit?

it appears that I can't use -check option if one of the audio tracks is DTS Express.
Thanks, I'll check that out.

After processing many movies without any issue, I ran into a problem while converting an 2 channel 24 bit / 96Khz audio track from the John Mayer bluray disc to 16bit / 48KHz.

output:

[a04] Creating file "c:\johnmayer_2ch_16b48k.flac"...
-----------------------------------------------------------------^C

Then at about 80%, the process hangs, CPU goes back to 0%. I waited for an hour, but no progress. After I press <ctrl-c>, there is an output file which seems to play OK, but seek doesn't work. From the size of the file judged, it is not complete.

When I just extract the track & convert to flac (so keep 24/96), eac3to works correctly and the output file plays OK.

However, converting this 24/96 flac track to 16/48 with eac3to gives the same result: hangs at the same position.

Down convert to 16/96 works, only when I resample to 48k it hangs.

I cannot use r8brain directly for the conversion as r8brain doesn't support flac and seems to have problems with wave files larger then 2GB. So I'm kind of stuck here.

Tried in Windows Vista 32bit Home Premium SP1 USA on 2 different computers. eac3to version tried both 2.55 and 2.56

Anything I can try?
Hmmmmm... That sounds bad. Can you please in that situation where eac3to hangs run this tool:

http://madshi.net/madTraceProcess.zip

That will output a report of where eac3to is stuck. Can you please upload that report somewhere? Or you can also mail it to dear (at) madshi (dot) net. Thanks!

Remuxing The Interpreter yields:
Unfortunately the Haali Muxer cannot handle this source file.
It doesn't contain enough seek/recovery points.
Even with -seekToIFrames. Ideas?
Ouch, that's really bad. But there's nothing I can do about it right now. As was already suggested you could demux the h264 track and mux it to MKV with mkvmerge. Unfortunately sometimes mkvmerge produces bad results when doing h264 muxing. But maybe you're in luck with this one...

feature request >> add an option to demux m2ts/ts and/or evo files by chapters...:) That could be great.
Yeah, that would be nice. Unfortunately it's not as easy as it might seem. The problem is that I'd probably have to recalculate the audio delay for every chapter. And that doesn't really fit into the current eac3to code structure/logic. I'll put this on my to do list, but I don't think it will be implemented anytime soon...

Do you mind to tell what source filter you are using for ac3 core files?

I've never found any source filter which fits to those files in my graph trials.
You mean for demuxed AC3 files? The orbitlee source filter should work. Personally, I'm using my own, though...

Hey, has anyone successfully used eac3to with the region a BR of Mr & Mrs Smith?

The reason I ask is that when I use eac3to to look at the BR directory, and then choose option 1 (the only option) I get this message...

Could you please check whether the problem still occurs if you produce a sample with the first 50MB of the file? If the problem still occurs, could you please upload that 50MB sample somewhere for me to check? Thanks!

Is is possible to make a "remux" from a BD ? I want take the mainmovie and sound, subs to output to a new m2ts file ??
eac3to doesn't output m2ts. It only supports m2ts as an input format. Check out TsRemux and TsMuxer. I think both of them do what you're looking for.

[Jan Marijniszoon]

That is no "core". The word "core" implies that the "core" is needed by the "extension". In Blu-Ray TrueHD tracks contain both TrueHD data blocks and AC3 frames. But both are totally independent of each other. Neither needs the other one.

I have a question about this. If you want to mux a Blu-Ray structure with tsMuxer, then it requires for the AC3 core to remain intact inside the TrueHD file.
When I want to remove dialogue normalisation with your wonderfull application, then I am 'forced' to detach the TrueHD stream from the core.

Is there maybe an undocumented option to still remove the dialogue normalisation, but maintain the full track? If not, maybe this can be a future request for your excellent application.

[rica]

You mean for demuxed AC3 files? The orbitlee source filter should work.


Tnanks for the response; do you mean "dts core" or are there any standalone orbitlee DX Source filter?

EDIT: correction; dtscore only accepts dts and wav files; so there should be a standalone filter :stupid:

[piratburner]

eac3to doesn't output m2ts. It only supports m2ts as an input format. Check out TsRemux and TsMuxer. I think both of them do what you're looking for.

If it´s possible to make a m2ts output, would you try that then ?

[deathlord]

Doesn't Cyberlink still downconvert everything to 16bit?

It probably does. But we don't need the decoder for decoding, only for applying dolby pro logic IIx or dolby headphone.
That means we can feed it 16bit in the first place, there will be no problem with downconverting.
Of course 24bit tracks will have to be converted to 16bit by eac3to first, so it might take a bit longer. But that's not really a problem. And I assume you agree 16bit-quality is enough if pro logic is applied to the audio afterwards.;)

I personally downconvert everything to 16bit in eac3to. I think 24bit is a waste of diskspace.:D So the dplIIx functionality would also be very useful for me in madflac.

[deathlord]

Actually, Reservoir Dogs was 6.1, not 5.1. So here (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=F0N71KD1) is a sample.

[woah!]

was a fix made (which i have not read) with the edward scissorhands 3/1 dts conversion here http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1120187&highlight=SCISSORHANDS#post1120187 ? http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1151620&highlight=SCISSORHANDS#post1151620

i have tried a few different things mentioned in this very long thread but i cant seem to get from the dtsma to ac3 file. do i need to go to another format first maybe?

[Roscoe62]

Could you please check whether the problem still occurs if you produce a sample with the first 50MB of the file? If the problem still occurs, could you please upload that 50MB sample somewhere for me to check? Thanks!

Hi Madshi,

I created the 50Mb sample and, yes, it still produces the error "The program channel mapping changes in the middle of the stream", but it also produces an error "This TS/M2TS file seems to be damaged (sync byte missing). The format of the source file could not be detected."

Hopefully this is what normally happens when you just take a slice of the original file. Also, I note 50Mb doesn't even get you past the studio fanfare, so hopefully it's big enough for you. Please let me know if you need a larger piece.

Anyway, here (http://www.sendspace.com/file/b00ppu) it is!

[sehgal.v7]

@Madshi
Yeap, question is why eac3to shown discontinuety error, & not when just remuxed nothing changing by TSMuxer.
Secondly, i want you add feature to demux tracks on other location. It's not implemented yet.
"eac3to C:\0000.m2ts D:\ -demux"

The 3/1.0 channelmap format is not standard and I can't do the conversion with a direct:
eac3to 310sam.dts 310sam.ac3
I obtain this error:
...
The AC3 encoder received a non-supported data format.
...

But using the aften encoder and arcsoft decoder you can try:
eac3to 310sam.dts stdout.wav -extensible | aften - 310sam.ac3

Using -libav (only core of course) you need remap:
eac3to 310sam.dts stdout.wav -libav -1,2,0,3,4,5 -extensible | aften - 310sam.ac3

[xsictransitx]

This is not possible yet. Maybe it will be supported in the future, as madshi said somwhere above.
However, you should be able to do everything in one go already. Just use the eac3toandmore GUI.

Thanks deathlord, the issue is that I am writing my own application on the side with its own gui and would like to reference eac3to as is. Is it possible through just MKVtoolnix to insert the flac audio track? I am searching for how to do so as I type this but am having no luck.

Hi guys, i'm sorry but i've been still searching Orbitlee's source filter. Any help would be appreciated.

I am not quite sure if I understand correctly, but why don't you just use the command line options from mkvmerge to mux video.mkv and audio.flac? You can find the options here (http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/doc/mkvmerge.html).
I know of no other way to mux flac into .mkv, but I don't really see why you would need one, it works very well this way.

I've had finally a BD which has a DTS-HD: Hitman.

I was planning to convert it into a multichannel wav and later seperate to 6 mono channels by Tranzcode or WaveVizard and finally i would convert to dts 1536/48 via Surcode DVD Pro DTS.

I have Arcsoft TMT and first step went fine with eac3to:
eac3to v2.56
command line: "C:\eac3to\eac3to.exe" "F:\HITMAN_F4\BDMV\STREAM\00002.track_4353.dts" "F:\HITMAN_F4\BDMV\STREAM\00002.track_4353.wav"

Caution: The WAV file is bigger than 4GB.
Some WAV readers might not be able to handle this file correctly.
eac3to processing took 11 minutes, 6 seconds.
Done.

The next step never worked (i mean started but never completed) with neither tranzcode nor Wavevizard since the source file was larger than 4GB-i think.

Caution: The WAV file is bigger than 4GB.
Some WAV readers might not be able to handle this file correctly.


Any recomandations?

EDIT: The source dts file was 822 MB since the created wav was 4.6 GB.

[Snowknight26]

First of all, if its DTS-HD, you can extract the DTS core using -core.
If its not DTS-HD (yours seems to be DTS-HD High Resolution), you can convert the whole stream to DTS the same way you would the above but without -core.

Not sure why you're trying to do it in 3 steps.

[EPiPH0NE]

Snowknight26 beat me to it.

Hey Madshi, something seems to be wrong with Blu-ray subtitle demuxing for seamless branching movies.
The movie I've got here is split into two (unequal) m2ts parts and subtitles which are supposed to be in the second part, already occur in the first part.

1st m2ts part duration: 58:15
2nd m2ts part duration: 42:46


Until subtitle 8 everything is fine (SupRip v1.0):

8
00:51:46,395 --> 00:51:49,063
Text1

But then the next subtitle kicks in much too early and right after the 8th subtitle:

9
00:51:49,063 --> 00:51:51,814
Text2

It is actually supposed to start at 01:00:59 (2nd m2ts part).

Hope that helps if you want to take a look at that.

[rica]

eac3to input.dtshd output.dts -core

I think.

You don't have to demux the track you can just use the M2TS file as input in eac3to. I use Eac3to_And_More_GUI cause I loathe CMD but I think it would look something like:

eac3to input.m2ts output.dts -core (<- this is a 'switch' telling eac3to to 'core' the DTS-HD track, see first page)


I think you may need to specify certain title sets in the CMD but as I said I use a GUI cause weed and CMD don't mix :D

@rica

Well, it looks like you figured it out :) What region BluRay is your Hitman disc? I used Region A and it has DTS-MA not DTS-HD. You got ripped off :P

[rica]

@epiphone, it was a Region "B" BD.

BTW, i've decided not to demux audio files with TSMuxer first since i've found it only takes core side of the audio but not HD data; at least for dts-hd.

The last fifteen minute frame is missing and look what i got:

ac3to v2.56
command line: eac3to\eac3to.exe "F:\HITMAN_F4\BDMV\STREAM\00002.track_4353.dts" "C:\Users\rica\Desktop\eac3to-output\out_2.dts"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DTS, 5.1 channels, 1:16:01, 24 bits, 1536kbit/s, 48khz
Removing DTS zero padding...
Creating file "C:\Users\rica\Desktop\eac3to-output\out_2.dts"...
The last DTS frame is incomplete and thus gets skipped.
eac3to processing took 35 seconds.
Done.

Final file is just an uncompleted core dts (not a dts-hd):

Compare with the one i gave on previous post; command line is completely same except the source file.

And finally thanks for reminding me using eac3to directly:thanks:

Madshi, are there any plans to release the source code and/or provide Linux binaries? At least for just doing demuxing, the dialog normalization, the channel remapping, and the delay fixing.

Thanks very much. I will be switching to Linux soon (hopefully), and it doesn't seem as though anyone's got this working through Wine or other software. If not, can you recommend any applications capable of detecting the dialog normalization/removing it, and doing the channel remapping?

FYI, new Arcsoft update is available:

http://base.arcsoft.com/downloads/totalmediaextreme/arcsoft/TotalMediaExtreme_1.0.6.23_1.0.6.30_Update_ALL.exe

interesting, there is now DirectShow DTS Encoder filter (dtsencoder.ax).

I take it you've updated, and is eac3to still working with the arcsoft filter ?

Cheers.

yes, i have updated and yes, eac3to still works with this latest update.

[Thunderbolt8]

does the latest version still decode all dts-hd (ma) stuff bit perfectly?

[xkodi]

does the latest version still decode all dts-hd (ma) stuff bit perfectly?

didn't test that, dtsdecoderdll.dll is still version 1.1.0.0, but binary it is different file, because:

dtsdecoderdll.dll version 1.1.0.0 (from TMT build 113)
MD5 52191f0d600ba19065ace3720b76ed87

dtsdecoderdll.dll version 1.1.0.0 (from the latest TMT build 120)
MD5 644aa3ade7742079533dcde2abf153e2

[edit] i've tested on 3 DTS-HD MA samples and the results are bit-perfect.

[Thunderbolt8]

thanks. is there any reason to upgrade at all when using it only within eac3to?

[xkodi]

thanks. is there any reason to upgrade at all when using it only within eac3to?

i don't think that there is such reason, because the old build 113 works great with eac3to.

[B4tm4n]

yes, i have updated and yes, eac3to still works with this latest update.

Thanks for the info.

Can you use dtsencoder.ax as standalone, say under GraphStudio, or just inside the TMExtreme application itself?

Would you give a screenshot from the properties page of the filter?

Thanks.

Self-answering:

I've given a go with TME-trial; the answer is Arcsoft doesn't allow using dtsencoder.ax as standalone.
Then, does it allow it to be used in the application?

I haven't seen any dts alternative under the audio options:

Just wanted to thank madshi once again for the aac support, I've been playing around with the Hauppauge HD-PVR capture device and trying to cut commercials with h264ts_cutter and it leaves some horrible audio/video sync problems behind and eac3to fixes them right up and this is with just one ts file, it recognizes the gaps and overlaps and corrects them.

If DTS Express decoding was ever implemented in libavcodec, would eac3to be able to use it too?

I think it's gonna work:
